Hucks is not a happy person right now, and its showing on the pitch. But who can blame him playing with a bunch of rejects and having a manager who has no idea how to manage!

[quote user="Smudger"]and what will that solve???  IT is Delia & MWJ''s who are to blame for the state the club finds itself in tonight!!!  [:@][/quote] So what you are saying smudger, is that delia and michael pick who to sign, and what team and tactics to play! This is grant''s team and his players. He is the one who has to get them to gel and play well. Sorry but the blame has to be on grant, he was the one who signed these rejects!

Get that so called manager of ours, out of here before its too late! He has no idea what he is doing and if he has got any kind of respect for norwich and their fans he should quit now before were relegated.

After the man city display we must keep that going, play with lots of confidence and go into saturday''s match on all cylinders firing! Forget about our other league performances, they''re history. If we can play like that against man city away, well we should be able to take anyone on in this league and win. Lets all start being a bit more positive, get right behind the team! Me personally, i think we have been playing we a lack of confidence and giving to much respect to other teams! Now the confidence will be up, lets win on saturday, win well and kick some ass!

[quote user="Web Team - Pete"]Hucks turned over on his ankle in training yesterday.[/quote] Are we supposed to beleive this! What a load of rubbish, what kind of mugs does grant think we are.

Neil doncaster today said we might have to sell players to balance the books. It just makes you think, who is worth anything that we could sell? Our only star player Hucks leaves at the end of this season. We only made 90k profit last year, the debt came down by 2 million to 17 million but these figures included the last 7 million parachute payment. Without this parachute payment the debt would of grown to 25 million.  Now we don''t have any more parachute payments and no big stars to sell the future''s gloomy. Very very gloomy!

Come on you lot. You are not going to tell me its the boards fault that he didn''t sign a centreback  during the summer. After last season this should of been the first signing. There was plenty of cheap centrebacks  moving about during the summer.  What about the starting line up the other night dropping cureton and strihavka in favour of brown. He is a joke!

Its clear he has no idea what he is doing as manager, you only have to look at his team selection''s to see that. But instead of sacking him offer him the vacant coach''s job.  

Ian murray. Been ill ever since we got him end of last month, and he is still ill. Grant played him one game while still ill, two weeks ago and we''ve not seen him since.  Its not a football injury but some sort of infection.

I too thought chris brown looked good, strong, fit in the first game or two. But the last couple of games i have gone right off him. Saturday he was awful. Every header he won he put it to the wrong side of cureton. Time and time again he did this. He had 2 good chances to score and he didn''t even go close. He can not finish to save his life. My biggest concern is grants team selection and tactics. Totally bizarre is the only way to describe it. One last thing i can clearly remember 2 of cureton''s goals and brown didn''t play any part. One was the free kick which came from that back pass, and the other was when croft crossed the ball, the defender missed it and the ball went to cureton, who turned and shot.

When delia and her husband came on board we took a big step forwards and got promoted. Now it seems we have taken two big steps backwards. Selling our best players, not re-investing the money on new quality players, and the most important thing having a manager who does not know what he is doing! His team selection and tactics are just bizarre! He is even worse than Hamilton! I say get rid of him, get in paul jewel, and you would see a huge improvement straight away, even with these players.

I can see that grant still has 1 or 2 supporters but he is losing them by the week. Very strange starting line up and tactics. We were completely outplayed from the first minute until the last and we got what we deserved nothing! How did grant get this job, because he has no idea what he is doing.

I just can''t get my head round with grant''s thinking and his starting line up last night. Was is it with brown? He can''t score to save his life and he gets picked over the  top scorer in the league last season cureton and saturday''s hero strihavka. In the interview on the radio after the match grant said, he didn''t play cureton because he wanted to play huckerby. This just does not make any sence to me.

Our away form is terrible and has been for the last 3 or 4 seasons. With grant in charge nothing has changed and he has been here for nearly a year now. Why are we so bad away from home?  Anyone know how many away games we have won the last few seasons?

I just can not beleive grant keeps playing him. I have never ever seen a defender like doherty, who constantly has his arms around his marker and he is always holding players shirts and giving away needless freekicks. He was doing it on saturday and at one point had his arms around his oponents neck, and he got away with it. He is such a libility!      

Should of been a hotel at the front built into a corner stand with a couple of thouand seats and a seperate viewing area for the hotel guests.

The idea of having rooms facing the pitch was clearly to have football fans watching the game from their rooms. I would not of minded a hotel built into the corner but road side only and  not pitch side. Just 2 rooms being used out of 30-40 rooms during a match is just a waste. This hotel is stuck here for good now and any major ground improvements will have to be built around this ugly white and black thing in the corner! 

Building a hotel in the corner of the barclay and jarrold was such a bad idea. On saturday i only saw two rooms being used and two people watching the match. Last month we had the incident of the away fan after being ejected from the ground and going straight in and getting a room facing the pitch. It doesn''t exactly look great either and it would of been far better turning it into another stand, and adding another two or three thousand to the ground capacity.  Too late now!

[quote user="silver fox"][quote user="ob1"] So.... we have these options; 1) Good right midfielder, with great attacking right back. 2) Great attacking right back playing as a good midfielder, and a not-very good right back. With a good right midfielder on the bench. Silly suggestion. [/quote] Who is this good right midfielder and please don''t say Croft or Chadwick because that would be the silliest suggestion I have heard this year. Just out of curiosity have you ever seen Cave-Brown, Rossi Jarvis or Spillane play because they can all play well at right back? [/quote]Spot on and well said silver fox.

I said this and posted this a few weeks ago(27/08).  Its good to see quite a few people thinking the same thing now. He has great pace, can beat players and more importantly plays and looks like a right winger.  He does like to get forward but is limited playing right back because of his defensive duties.  Croft and chadwick are not doing anything good attacking wise so why not?

Its been confirmed he has been killed. This is very sad news.

I think everyone will have to agree on this one. I was praising brown just a few weeks ago for his strengh and hold up play, but after watching him today i think he has had enough chances and should be dropped to the bench. When winning headers today he was putting them the wrong side of cureton time and time again. He wasted 2 clear chances to score, and i just don''t think he has the ability to finish. The game today was crying out for big dave to come on, and when he did, he gets himself a winning goal. It was not a good game today and neither team played that well. I am just happy we kept a clean sheet and got all three points. Big dave has to start next week!

[quote user="on the road again"]If this is all you have to worry about then I think you need to rethink life. Why change just for change sake. The Pink''un has been sent all over the world, including to myself.  I ask the question should we change from yellow and green as green is meant to be an unlucky colour.[/quote] You are not understanding my point. I used to live in america and used to get my family to send the pink''un over. Not that i was bothered about it, and i would laugh about it too, but my friends at the time used to joke about its name the "pink''un" and our nickname "the canaries".   They all used to say how gay it sounded, and thought i supported a gay soccer team. Its ok for the people who live in norfolk because everyone has heard of it, but outside of norfolk no-one would associate a paper called the pink''un with news on norwich and local sports news.

I know the name The Pink''un goes back quite a few years and that its been reporting all about norwich city and other local team news for some time now. I also know it used to be printed on pink paper, thats how it got its name but is there any other reason to keep this name?  I just think its a very strange name to be associated with a club thats plays in yellow and green. Maybe it should be changed to The Green and Yellow''s or maybe Yellow Fever!   

I''d rather have bally smart on the right wing than croft.
